You can get your stock firmware from one of those 2 sites. They are slow but have most of them. The 5rh digit back from far end is your bootloader revision. Your device is on a revision 5 bootloader so any firmware you download has to have a 5 in the 5h to last spot. After obtaining your firmware. You flash it with odin 3.13 and all is undone you will be on the latest firmware unrooted 100% stock again
Thanks a bunch. It worked. I am now running Stock ROM (Pie 9.0) on the phone.

I've been thinking about something like this for about 2 months on the note. Didn't know how to follow through. Haven't checked this forum in a little bit.

You've given me some great ideas. Because the s8 files seems to have later build dates than mine. And I seem to have most of the same files already minus the Edl's and the modified's. I need to get my packing tools built.

It truly might really be fully translatable. This is great news.

BRB1 vs ARH8

this is the more recent of the 2 combo's (ARH8) and the green screen issue has been fixed . true or false :confused:

---------- Post added at 09:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:42 AM ----------

I have been having a hard time getting the right Stock ROM for my Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus (SM-G955U). I have tried flashing (through Odin) different stock roms I got from the internet BUT none seems to be compatible with my phone. Presently I am running a custom rom (7.0) a guy (Technician) from oneclickroot.com flashed (remotely) to my phone last month in quest to root my phone. I wasn't expecting a lower version firmware to be flashed to my phone when I requested for their service to help root the phone and my phone ended up being downgraded from Stock ROM (8.0) to a lower and rooted version of firmware (7.0). Now I am fed up with the custom rom because the experience has been terrible as I can no longer use face recognition, iris scanner, my battery no longer charges up to 100% (it stops at 80%) etc.

I would be glad if an expert can please help provide an exact download link for Stock ROM (7.0/8.0) that can work with my phone.

Thanks in anticipation.

Did you try the Nand erase option in ODIN ? Might be a good idea to give a wipe since your coming from the BRB1 combo. Is this correct ? Your rooted with safestrap on BRB1 ?

Hello.
I am someone who has been on V2 PartCyborgRom for a while since it came out.
It has a few issues I dislike
- preinstalled Xposed broke my bluetooth (forgets every device after reboot)
- obviously don't like losing Pokemon GO, secret folder, 80%battery.

Would I be able to keep root with this rom and maybe have it be undetected with Magisk?
Is it risky or dangerous to go straight from my ROM to this?

Any help is appreciated, the more detailed the better. I am only competent enough to follow directions but most of this stuff is confusing.

    How to use it to change carrier. I do not want safestrap. Also will it trip knox?

    There are lots of forums how to do this. The firmware is rooted which even makes it easier. It does not trip knox and if you are smart you will use that safestrap you dont want and use it to make an efs backup before changing carrier
